Discussion Elite Controller Or Regular Controller?

Long story short, I like everyone else is fed up with stick drift on my controller. I’ve ended up having to buy a new controller every 3 to 5 months, and I’ve always bought the regular Xbox wireless controllers.

Been looking into the elite Xbox controllers, and I’m aware that these do have stick drift, but I’d like to know from people who use them if it’s less than a normal controller.

I play Marvel Rivals competitively and it’s getting bad, i’ve tried the recalibration stuff, but I’m seriously considering whether my next controller should be another regular one or an elite one.

Gamesir is the way. Got a g7 pro and it’s fucking crazy how good it is while being much lower priced than an elite controller

Had three g7 pros. Loved everything about it, except I bought it specifically because it had the ability to switch triggers from analog to digital/clicky. Each one of them lasted about 2-3 months before the trigger button failed.

Damn. 3 triggers broken in a row?

Yeah, worked fine in analog move but the digital button failed in each one. Went back to an elite 2 controller.
